Exercise right week

Exercise right week!

Exercise Right Week is our annual campaign aimed at encouraging all Australians to be more active and to know where to get the *right* advice when it comes to moving more. This year’s theme is Exercise for the Right Reasons. Why? Because a lot of the dialog in the health and fitness industry turns exercise into a chore or punishment. It pushes exercise as merely a weight loss tool or a way to create an “ideal” body. This can create a negative relationship between our minds and movement. We want to change that. 

So this week, instead of looking at a number on a scale, or the "dream body", why not try moving your body to improve your mood, or connect with friends, or to beat your last personal best? Share your reasons for Exercising Right this week, and every week to come!
